Welcome & Verification mail | Forum

Marek
Marek Nov 2 '11
Hi. Is there any possibility to:
1. disable welcome mail after registration by form or by fbconnect
2. send welcome mail AFTER the mail is verified by link in verification mail?

My users get 2 mails at once (welcome&verification) and probably don't know what to do because they not verify their mail.

Simple answer is no, though it is possible but anything you do to the code will be overwritten in future updates.

I agree with Marek.  Users should not get the welcome email until they verify their email.  My users have been getting confused because they think they are verified because they get the welcome email.  I think this is something that should be changed for a future release.

my user have this problem too.. after complete and success on registration the page show this.. 



the message 'registration successful' and 'verification email successfully sent'.. my user was confused.. and then they click again 'send' button. after that the page is still there.. and some user click again the send button until they notice they should manually go to the homepage or check their email. (the result two or more verification email received..)

i suggest that after click 'send' button.. the page will go to the main page.. or put some link 'back to home' below the line of send button.

And as for the SMTP settings, you can use Google SMTP server but I strongly recommend using one email address for the website to avoid getting into spam blacklists.

Do you members receive any other email from your site? Check your SMTP settings.
